The simple fix described in this email: http://www.nabble.com/mouse-yank-at-point-in-Comint-modes-td7731895.html never got applied to the trunk. Thus the problem of yanks not honoring mouse-yank-at-point is still present in comint mode. Is it possible that it could be applied? Here is an updated version of the patch: --- emacs/lisp/comint.el 2008-09-08 14:46:43.000000000 -0600 +++ emacs-080908/lisp/comint.el 2008-09-11 15:24:11.000000000 -0600 @@ -815,7 +815,7 @@ If there is no previous input at point, run the command specified by the global keymap (usually `mouse-yank-at-point')."
